Is there a keyboard shortcut in Visual Studio (aside from CTRL+TAB and selection) that would take me from inside a document directly into the solution explorer? I don't want to customize any shortcuts or change any default behavior.

CTRL+ALT+L

should shift focus to the Solution Explorer.

For visual studio 2012 use:

CTRL+[ + S this selects your current document in the solution explorer.
